With the discounts she only cost 156m in total with all the modules and is 7.7m to rebuy. I still have 600m left in the bank.

Oh wow. That's a HUGE discount over the standard price. Pretty neat that the coriolis ship builder would also show how long can your ship travel without refueling. Too bad I still have a long way to go for Elite!


@ Thread:
Apparently voice attack can be a double-edged sword. Was on voicechat (not in-game) with a few friends who activated silent running and afterburner. Thankfully, I was already aligned at the station entryway or I might've blown up.

Took Star of Elendil out on her maiden voyage of discovery, went approx 500ly (we are on the edge of inhabited space) and made 1m.

Tagged my first stars and planets :) Exploration rank jumped from 16% to 43% towards Pathfinder.

Nicely done, nothing quite beats the feeling of discovering something first!

Oh that makes my day. Joystick going crazy. No chance even with driver update.
Big time.

EDIT No chance to get my hands on a new one the next days. But i must say it WAS an experience ... after launch, my Vulture started sommersaulting all over the place, zooming from one wall of the Coriolis to the other.
Boy I never was so happy to do the right thing just in time, which was, after a second of frantically pushing buttons, pulling on the lever and zeroing thrust, realizing "Oh! Hardware! Shi...", exiting to Main Menu ...

just got my vulture, and gained "Competent" combat rank - not a bad hours res site. Started upgrading but realised that 200k not enough - gonna have to do more res to finish upgraade.

Dropped mainly clippers and drop ships (with viper and python escorts)

Things are looking up... :-)

My bounty in HIP 20277 finally dropped off so I went back to one of my favourite RES systems. And needless to say, it's still awesome. First RES I entered and I stuck by it for 1 full hour. Gained 6,6mil Cr and got my Expert rank up to 45%. I saw maybe 2 cobras, and a few eagles. The rest of them were Clippers, Pythons and Dropships. Just as they should spawn in a normal RES.

I saw CMDR Robfm81 in the system but he didn't answer my comms. Baaaad commander! *smacks with space debris* :D

Waiting to see where I fall in the Lembava community goal, then it is off for a long exploration run. My T-6, topped out at 27ly, with a great scoop. I jumped into a sector last night and refueled without moving, hit the explore button and bailed out...
